Hold onto your makeup brushes, because we’re putting Lady Gaga’s HAUS LABS Triclone Skin Tech Medium Coverage Foundation with Fermented Arnica to the test. TikTok went wild for it and it secured a spot as an Allure 2023 Clean Beauty Winner. It claims to be non-comedogenic, hypoallergenic, and packed with medicinal herbs and antioxidants, promising to be your skin’s best friend against environmental stress. Now, the burning question: does it live up to the hype and the hefty price tag? Well, my fellow makeup lovers, read on as we dissect every detail to uncover if this foundation is truly worth your hard-earned money.
How It Wears:
I prefer using a sponge to apply the foundation because I felt like the brush emphasized texture and made my skin look cakey. It looks nice and smooth on the skin. With powdering, I didn’t get as oily as I usually do after 5-6 hours. It’s a foundation that lasts a long time.
Who’s It For:
The formula is not as hydrating compared to other foundations I own so if you have desert dry skin I would avoid this product. However, if you have combination or oily skin and like a natural finish you will like this foundation. It’s not a full-coverage foundation but has decent coverage that evens out the skin tone nicely. The Fermented Arnica in it is meant to help reduce redness.

Is It Worth The Money?
The foundation is $61 and comes with 30ml of product which is the standard amount for a foundation. I can see why the foundation won an award. Not only does it come in a sleek glass bottle but it looks nice in the skin. Not looking super oily in my t-zone after 5-6 hours is a huge win for me. But, I prefer my foundations to have a more glowy finish. If you also prefer a glowy finish then you can use a complexion enhancer like the Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter underneath. If your skin isn’t super dry and you’re all about that high-quality foundation life without a makeup stash to rival a beauty guru’s closet, then go ahead and treat yourself.
